Exclusive interview: Trump 'absolutely' looking at breaking up 9th Circuit
Washington Examiner ^ | 04/26/2017 | Sarah Westwood

"You see judge shopping, or what's gone on with these people, they immediately run to the 9th Circuit," Trump said.

President Trump said Wednesday that he has "absolutely" considered proposals that would split up the 9th Circuit, where judges have blocked two of his executive actions.

"Absolutely, I have," Trump said of considering 9th circuit breakup proposals during a far-ranging interview with the Washington Examiner at the White House on Wednesday. "There are many people that want to break up the 9th Circuit. It's outrageous."

"Everybody immediately runs to the 9th Circuit. And we have a big country. We have lots of other locations. But they immediately run to the 9th Circuit. Because they know that's like, semi-automatic," Trump said.

Wonder if the 9th circuit would find a way to block it?

LOL I am sure they would. It's that bad.

In addition to this action I would like to see someone sponsor bill called the 'Judicial Accountability ACT'. The bill would provide for the removal of any federal or appellate judge who has been overruled by a higher court more than 3 times.

Such judges have demonstrated a pattern that they lack the proper respect and understanding of their judicial responsibilities to make constitutionally sound rulings. They are simply bad judges and need to seek employment in another career field such as fast food or house cleaning.

“Their are four open seats in the 9th Circus They need to be filled with conservatives NOW.”

But the Dems will filibuster. Oh, that right. They no longer cane do so. Wow.

Better yet split it up and spread the current members thinly among the three new circuits, and appoint conservative judges to the current vacant positions and all new positions created by the split.

Actually each circuits rulings should only apply to their circuit, while being appealed to the Supreme Court.

It is well known that a judge in the 9th circuit is appointed for political purposes and is normally over turned. What the western court has become is just a stalling tactic and a topic headline for the liberal media.

I'd like to see a law that says when they make their stupid and unfounded rulings the appeal is automatic and must be heard with 24 hours.

Then we can go right to a real court and get on with business.

“Needs to limit jurisdiction of federal district courts to their own judicial district.”


And then require that within two to four weeks that questioned ruling has to be considered by the Supreme Court. If not approved for review, the ruling by the circuit would be null and void.

The spineless RINOs in Congress will stop him. All of this judicial activism could be stopped overnight by Congress by simply defunding the court and then impeaching the judges. The balance of power has been overdue for correction going back to Roe V Wade where the left learned that unelected people in black robes can control our country without a vote.

Each with 2000 volts...

When ANY and every Federal can issue binding, nationwide orders...why does it matter how the 9th Circuit is composed?

Brand an ‘R’ in the middle of the judges’ foreheads, put them in a Trump t-shirt with a ‘Hillary for Prison’ bumpersticker across their hineys and drop them on the Berkeley campus.

my answer to judicial activism is simple. congress should have impeachment hearings on some of these judges. even if impeaching the judge does not happen it would educate the public to what is going on with the judiciary. I would look for the most outrageous examples of judges not doing a ruling because of case law and the constitution but deciding the law on what they feel the law should be.

They’ll just declare checks and balances on the judiciary as unconstitutional and keep right on going,

I do not want anyone selecting these people anymore, nor do I want any federal judges.

We do not need unelected people with this much power for any reason.
